How’s the exhaust note now Elsie?



Crisp & loving it [emoji41][emoji1362]



Check the horrible job on my old system. Holes in the mufflers from someone trying to weld steel hangers to the stainless. Good call on replacing it !

Thank you@Peter for picking it up yesterday, I owe you dinner x IMG_1456.jpg

How was MURICA Khunt?

 

 

It was good.

I'm a fan of LA, Vegas was... interesting. Vegas is no cheaper than Perth IMO unless you do the bucket of witches piss or a buffet, and that just wasn't our bag.

Lots of great food and I saw some wicked cars.

Made some progress on getting some new cars for the fleet, one large 4x4 for me ;) one truck for the workshop.

You and me both! I met a guy at SEMA who overhauls the ex-military units. He had a basic one there and parked next to it one he'd built, was a pretty crazy comparison.

He said he had a car at his shop he was allowed to sell me, I emailed him yesterday and he's going to give me a price on a really basic build, just enough for me to drive around Perth and park at the shops without breaking the bank.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
